I have seen a small motor mount on NRS in years past. If you know a good aluminum welder, you could probably build it to your specific needs. NRS stuff usually requires a little tweaking to get just right anyway.

Cliff,
With a motor you have followed the correct path.  The law requires all water craft powered by non-human power to be registered.  This includes sail boats. I have a 20' tandem kayak that has a sail rigging. I do not have to reg the kayak unless I raise a sail, and then it has to gave numbers on it.
So in general, kayaks, canoes, rafts and paddle boats - no
Sail boats, jet ski/craft, power boats, and anything w/ a trolling motor- yes
Have a great trip.

>> Everything I've read on the MVD website says a raft does not need to be titled in New Mexico unless it has a motor on it.  I'm heading to Cataract Canyon next week and that's the only place I've wanted a motor. Sounds like the rangers are patrolling more than they used to, so I just jumped though that expensive hoops to register my 16' Cataraft.  Actually Sotar makes my tubes 15' 11", which I think is hilarious, so I'm not subject to the stupid things that begin to apply for 16' boats or bigger.  At least the Type II throwable Device can be replaced with a commercially made throw bag with at least 40' of rope in it.

The uh, 'staff' at the MVD offices [I'm remaining civil just like I did with them yesterday and the day before that], swears that ALL boats (they say over 12' - it's actually over 10') have to be titled; but this page clearly says otherwise:
